Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 512 The Conspiracy Begins

Taking a deep breath, Cao Youyou pretended to be calm and said, "Mr. Snowden has really misunderstood. It's all a coincidence."

"That's good. I also hope it's just a coincidence. My meeting with you today is also just a coincidence," Mr. Snowden said with a smile.

Cao Youyou lowered her eyes, her nails digging into her flesh. "No matter what you think, what I said is true."

"Very well, then remember your promise from back then." Snowden's face darkened, and his tone became much colder.

Cao Youyou bit her lip: "I haven't forgotten. As long as he's doing well, that's all that matters."

Snowden stared coldly at her; she seemed so frail and pitiful. However, all of this was merely an illusion. This woman was a demon, even more terrifying than a demon.

He may be old, but he's not senile yet. To expect him to believe it was all just a coincidence? In his next life!

The cold, venomous snake must be guarded against at all times; a moment of carelessness could lead to utter destruction.

He stood up, patted Cao Youyou on the shoulder, and said, "It's good that the misunderstanding is cleared up. I have something to do, so you should go see your boyfriend too." As he spoke, Snowden had already reached the door. The bodyguard opened the door for him, and he paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "There's an old Chinese saying, 'An old ox eats tender grass.' I used to be like that, and now you are even more so."

The door was closed, and Cao Youyou glared fiercely at it, her hatred seemingly etched into her very bones.

She was young and naive back then, but now that the opportunity is right in front of her, she will never let it go again.

He Cangyuan had no relatives left, and his funeral was very quiet.

Yan Zuozuo stood quietly beside his coffin, keeping him company. Cao Youyou didn't come, saying she couldn't handle the shock and her body wouldn't allow it.

She sighed inwardly; in the end, it was she who saw him off on his final journey. She had considered informing Mrs. He, He Xinrui's mother, but she couldn't get in touch with her afterward.

That day, the woman she saw with Mu Tianyang... she didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she really did look a lot like him.

Chi Moqing held her hand tightly, the warmth flowing from her fingertips into her heart.

She had longed for a father's love, but all she received in return was humiliation. It was that humiliation that drove her to despair that led her to meet Chi Moqing, a man who was considerate and devoted to her.

He Cangyuan left, and she was indeed a little sad, but she had a man by her side to protect her from the wind and rain, so she believed that her sadness would soon pass.

"Don't worry, I will be happy." Yan Zuozuo said softly, looking up at Chi Moqing to tell him not to worry.

"Cangyuan!"

Suddenly, a mournful cry came from the entrance of the mourning hall. Yan Zuozuo turned around and saw that it was Cao Youyou.

She blinked. Didn't you say you weren't coming?

"Cangyuan!" Cao Youyou threw herself onto the coffin, crying her heart out.

Yan Zuozuo wanted to go over and comfort her, but Chi Moqing stopped him. "Wife, are you tired? Let's go back first." As he spoke, he gave Jian Ning a wink, and Jian Ning walked over to Cao Youyou's side.

Upon hearing Chi Moqing's voice, Yan Zuozuo remembered that she was pregnant. She had been feeling too sad these past two days, which was not good for the baby, so she had to control her emotions.

only……

"Honey, shall we leave now?"

"Now that Cao Youyou is here, there's no need for us to stay any longer."

Yan Zuozuo frowned, feeling that something was amiss. However, considering the baby in her belly, she nodded in agreement. Before leaving, she glanced at Cao Youyou one last time.

What a tragic woman! She lost her child, and the man she loved left her too. But doesn't Cao Youyou have any family? She said she was rescued by He Cangyuan at a nightclub, so why would she work there?

Seeing his wife's confused face, Chi Moqing said softly, "Let's go back first. I'll have Jian Ning handle things here, so don't worry."

Now that her husband has made all the arrangements, there's no need for her to stay any longer. Even if she forgives He Cangyuan, it doesn't erase the fact that their relationship isn't that close.

However, when they reached the door, Snowden was unexpectedly standing there.

Yan Zuozuo quickly went over: "Grandpa, what are you doing here? I'm so sorry, I've neglected you because of this."

"Silly girl, do you have to be so polite to me?" Snowden smiled indulgently, his eyes full of kindness.

Yan Zuozuo laughed, then heard Snowden turn to Chi Moqing and say, "Moqing, Zuozuo is pregnant, she shouldn't attend these kinds of events. She should go home quickly."

Chi Moqing nodded: "We're going back now. We've really worn her out these past two days."

Snowden waved his hand: "Go back, I should also make a call to those three unfilial grandsons."

Upon hearing Snowden's words, Yan Zuozuo suddenly remembered Adrian's conversation with Snowden. Could it be that Snowden hadn't been telling Adrian about his whereabouts in the US?

It's been over a month already; who knows how Adrian must have been driven crazy with worry.

"Grandpa, Mr. Adrian has been looking for you, haven't you contacted him at all?"

“I know he’s looking for me.” Snowden’s eyes flashed slightly. “I’ll go back after I’m done. You take good care of yourself and don’t worry about anything else, my sweet girl.”

Yan Zuozuo became increasingly curious about what Mr. Snowden was going to do that he insisted on finishing before returning.

Remembering Adrian's worried expression, Yan Zuozuo couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, how long will it take to finish? Mr. Adrian is very worried."

Snowden paused, looking at Yan Zuozuo with a hint of sadness in his eyes, "Girl, are you in such a hurry to go back to your grandfather?"

Yan Zuozuo was dumbfounded. That wasn't what she meant; she just...

“Grandpa, that’s not what Zuo Zuo meant.” Seeing his wife too nervous to speak, Chi Moqing smiled and said, “When Adrian came to see you, he was in a hurry and asked Zuo Zuo to inform him as soon as he had any news. Now that he has seen you, it is natural for him to give Mr. Adrian a reply. However, even if you have to go back, Zuo Zuo and I can still come to see you. Forgive my bluntness, but I still think you should call Mr. Adrian first.”

Snowden pursed his lips: "I understand, you guys go back first."

Seeing Snowden leave alone, Yan Zuozuo felt a pang of anxiety: "Honey, did I say something wrong? Grandpa seems unhappy."

Chi Moqing patted her shoulder with a smile: "No, he's just reluctant to part with her."

Yan Zuozuo looked confused.

Chi Moqing lowered his head: "Grandpa said he would tell us the answer later, so please be patient."

Yan Zuozuo frowned, looking down at the ring on her hand. She said this, but she was very anxious. What exactly was her relationship with Mr. Snowden? If they were truly related by blood, why wasn't he saying so now?

So confusing!

On the bus, Mr. Snowden gazed out the window with a dazed look, a hint of melancholy flickering in his weathered eyes.

After so many years of searching, and with all the hardships of finding a loved one, are they really going to leave so hastily?

He couldn't bear to leave; he wanted to stay a little longer, to see his granddaughter and the baby in her belly.

He's already old and doesn't know when he'll pass away; this is his last wish.

It was only for a short while, just a glance, before he went back to take good care of Eleanor.

The next day, Yan Zuozuo went to work and was surprised to find Song Yutong and Lucy coming to her office.

Ever since Yan Zuozuo learned that Lucy had become the other woman in Jian Ning's relationship and harbored ill intentions towards Chi Moqing, she found it impossible to get close to her. However, it was undeniable that although Lucy had a scar on her face, it did not diminish her beauty at all; on the contrary, it made her look even more pitiful.

She didn't know how Jian Ning dealt with his first wife afterward, but he didn't come to the company to cause trouble. Speaking of which, that woman was quite pitiful, abandoned while pregnant. Jian Ning was truly a scoundrel. As for the woman in front of her…

Yan Zuozuo turned her gaze away from her, took a sip of coffee, and said, "Are your injuries all healed? If you're still feeling unwell, you can go home and rest for a few more days."

"Thank you for your understanding, Director Yan. Lucy and I are fine now."

"That's good, congratulations to you both."

“After lying in the hospital for so many days, I’ve been reading the news when I’m bored. I found a recent news item that’s closely related to our company’s future development strategy. This is a plan I made; the director can take a look.” As she spoke, Lucy pushed a document in front of Yan Zuozuo.

Although Lucy was her assistant, she was also a rare fashion designer. Putting aside personal prejudices, Yan Zuozuo was still interested in the proposals Lucy submitted.

I flipped through it and saw that the proposal was very well written. It would feature a special interview with a person to accompany each season's clothing. The interview could be with a celebrity, a political or business legend, an ordinary person, or someone with a little-known story.

Yan Zuozuo was very satisfied with the proposal: "It's very well written. Starting with the women's clothing department, this time we're going for professional attire. I wonder which character you plan to feature?"

Lucy and Song Yutong exchanged a glance. Lucy said, "I've learned about some big figures in politics and business, but I think the most unique one is the wife of a certain politician. She was a successful businesswoman when she was young, but later she resolutely followed her husband into politics and became the unsung woman behind him. She has a legendary story that others don't know, so I think she's the most suitable."

Do women like that really exist?

Yan Zuozuo's eyes widened: "Who is it?"

"Chu Jianguo's wife, Wang Zifei."

Chu Jian Guo...

Wait a minute, isn't this Chu Xinyuan's father, the one who is second only to the emperor?

She gasped sharply. He had already been selfless in dealing with Chu Xinyuan's matter, and there shouldn't have been any further entanglement between them. Was Lucy planning to play with fire?

Regarding the previous matter concerning Chu Xinyuan, Chu Jianguo acted righteously, even turning against his own family, but he didn't hear a single word from Madam Chu about it. If Madam Chu harbors resentment towards her, Lucy's plan would undoubtedly be playing with fire and getting burned.

Seeing Yan Zuozuo's expression change, Lucy asked curiously, "Director, is something wrong?"

Yan Zuozuo's expression turned serious: "Lucy, I don't care what you think, but we absolutely cannot invite Madam Chu. Regardless of whether she is a legend or not, we at Fan Hua Design must avoid her. This proposal is good, but the character selection is not approved."

Lucy frowned. "Director, this matter can still be discussed. I think Mrs. Chu..." She paused, as if remembering something, and tentatively asked, "Or does the Director have a grudge against them?"
